Give yourself or a loved one a gift that will be treasured! Just e-mail a favorite photo and I will render you an original work of art. Your completed work will be an 11 x 14 drawing on 100 lb paper. Your drawing will be mounted in a 16 x 20 museum quality hinged mat with a protective Mylar sleeve. I will take special care to ensure that your piece arrives safely within 4 weeks.
Candid photos create an emotional response! Tears, smiles, laughter . . . how do you want the recipient to feel? Choose your photo carefully. The most important thing is that you love the photo. Your photo must be in focus and the face must measure at least one inch. A larger image works best. Do not send photos with red eye. It is best if I can see the whites of the eye and the light reflection in the eye. Avoid photos that have exposure problems that obscure facial features or the shape of the head. Occassionally a dramatic shadow or light effect can translate into a fabulous drawing. Complicated backgrounds and details such as lace on a wedding dress may result in an additional charge.
I use only acid free archival quality materials.
I draw pets too!
